So pimping is a startup now?

It probably has a nice React front end and Stripe for payment processing, so that would put it in the startup bucket :)
Yikes, people still start new projects with Stripe after all the horror stories here on HN? In my mind they are on PayPal's level of broken fraud prevention by now.
"Nobody goes there, it's too crowded."
Are there vendors other than stripe and paypal that provide online payment processing services?
Always was.
